Product Description
Large batches are hardest to keep at temperature, and a circulating jacket solves that problem. This 5 L jacketed apparatus surrounds the reaction with heating or cooling fluid, giving consistent thermal control for scale-up, crystallization and exothermic chemistry, with a flush outlet for complete draining.
This listing is for Kimble catalog number 614110-5005: KONTES 5L Jacketed Reaction Apparatus. Made from 33 expansion low-extractable borosilicate glass meeting USP Type I and ASTM E438 Type I, Class A, the vessel has walls about 5 mm thick and jacket connectors for 1/2 inch tubing with 11 to 14 mm OD. The lid has a 45/50 center neck and 24/40 ports, sealed with a 6 inch beaded pipe T-bolt stainless/PTFE coupling. LIGHT LABS supplies the complete DWK Life Sciences line, including Kimble, Wheaton and DURAN labware.
